I had the privilege of knowing Sambu from the University days. He was a friend to all and foe to none. He was admired by everyone for his Humor. He was a courageous figure but with pious posture. We will miss him a lot. I was so pleased to see him very active and being involved in community activities in Canada when I was there couple of years ago. He has found the divine light. May Lord Thirumurugan bless his soul to attain eternal peace! Both Saro and I Deeply regret for not being able to attend his funeral.
